The aosp kernel is really just zefie's Optimus S kernel with a couple of tweaks for the Optimus V. The camera is partially affected by the kernel, MMS is not, that being said, I have not had any reports of issues with aosp's kernel on an IHO build. I have mixed feedback currently on MMS, let me know how it works for you.

Does link2sd work

It should, but I have received reports indicating you may have to run the setup scripts after each new flash.
Just updating. I'm still having problems (but not as bad) after i reflashed the rom via Clockwork Recovery v3.2.0.1. I wiped everything that AndyOpie150 has said, flashed the rom, then flashed gapps. I then rebooted and started my phone. Phone started up and before i installed anything, i went into settings and entered my wifi passcode. My phone will connect to my router for 3-4 mins then automatically disconnect and reconnect. (It does seem to reconnect easier. I've noticed it does not get stuck at "Obtaining IP address" as much.) I also tried setting up a spare wireless router that I have, but my phone will still connect for 3-4 mins then start the cycle over again.
I've also noticed that my data connectivity is behaving strangely. It seems to prefer 1x rather than 3G. At my work I have signal strength of around -75 dBm, data will fluctuate between 3G and 1x. When connected at 1x, mobile network type is CDMA - 1xRTT. Maybe this and my wifi problems are related?" Any ideas?

Thank you that was my main worry as I have allot of apps and rely on it. As for the script I had to do it when I flashed to harmonia so I think its an app issue not the rom.
Having the same problems as you too. Did pretty much everything you did, although my 3G appears to be be stable, don't fall back to 1x. JerryScript mentioned he had discussed with Blarf, hoping next build might resolve those issues. Mentioned something about a dhcp watchdog process, at least NOT being the culprit. Not sure exactly what that is, but I am hoping there is a fix soon, really like the build other than the wifi issues.

Jerry was talking about my last build and the wifi tweak I added.
I don't have the wifi problem that some poeple are having, but I did hear back from one person saying that it did fix there wifi issue. I would like some more feed back, so could you do a quick flash of my ROM to see if it fixes your issue? Just reboot into recovery make a backup, then wipe everything., then format everything except SD card, flash my ROM, reboot, test wifi, reboot back to recovery, restore you backup. Let us know if it worked for you.
Thanks for the help!

Thanks Bob, I can't reproduce the wifi bug myself, but hopefully someone here with the bug will try your build out and report back.

Does App 2 SD Pro work? I have that one..
Then I get this error when obviously there's enough space on my phone.
I've also set (in cyanogenmod settings) "allow application moving" and install location set to external if that helps.. =/
and I've got 12GBs space free on my microSD
In process of testing your CM7.1RC1 VM670 BobZhome 080511.zip build today. Will post later with results. Thanks BobZhome and JerryScript!

I flashed your ROM. I like having the -2 to +2 exposure settings, but it's not perfect yet. The default (0 setting) is unchanged. It's still darker than it should be. All of the exposure settings work, except +1 and +2 are reversed. (+2 should be brighter than +1).
I really like having Launcher Pro preinstalled. That's the launcher I use anyway. Saves me some time.
I'll keep testing your ROM. Everything except the camera works great so far...

I'll check on those setting for my next build...Thanks for the feed back!
Good news...Thanks for testing it out!

I also noticed that it took a while for the GPS to lock on. I'm not sure if you included the GPS fix that's in Jerry's ROM. His latest GPS fix locks on almost instantly. It's awesome.

After you connect to computer, in the pull down, select USB connected. A window will pop up. The Android guy with a USB connection for a Hand.
Click on "Turn on USB storage". It might take a few minutes,but a window with the contents of your SD card will appear on your PC

And if for some reason you don't get the notification about USB connection in the dropdown, go through settings:
settings>>applications>>development>>(check or uncheck)USB Debugging
Once you check or uncheck USB debugging, you should be taken to the sdcard mount screen.

Just uploaded experimental builds with wifi tweaks, bootsound, camera exposure tweaks, reset of death under privacy settings removed, and video icon added to app drawer. To change the bootsound, change or remove the following file:
/system/media/android_audio.mp3
See the OP for changelog and links to new experimental BACKside build, Green Machine Theme to match it, and a new GreenMachineLean package that has most of the bloatware removed, and the green machine theme added in for an easy one flash install.

"Changes 08082011: Edit: Now there is a themeless build with the experimental tweaks mentioned below built in for you tasteless types"
Where is the download link for the themeless build? Is the "Experimental Green Machine Lean" file themeless?
